Manuals
Notes
Sears used an obtuse system of model numbers for their store brand products, TVs included. This consists of a 3-digit code, followed by a decimal point and 7 numbers. Sears sourced their store brand products from a number of manufacturers, indicated by the first three digits. In this case, 564 is for Sanyo.
Other OEM codes include:
- 562 - Toshiba
- 721 - Samsung
- 934 - Hitachi
This TV uses a hot chassis design, and should not be modified for additional inputs.
This CRT is confirmed to be a hot chassis, possibly with very slow high voltage bleeding.
Hot Chassis means that "ground" on the chassis is tied to one side of the AC input from the wall, and touching it with your hand will complete a live circuit through your body to earth ground if the CRT is plugged into an AC outlet. The proper way to avoid this danger is to use an isolation transformer to isolate the CRT from earth ground and prevent electrocuting yourself.
Very slow high voltage bleeding means the picture tube itself retains a considerable amount of energy until manually discharged with an appropriate tool. Once discharged, remove the anode cap to prevent any static electricity recharging capacitors on the main board. There also may be stored energy on any capacitors near the flyback - look for 200v+ rated capacitors which are directly on the screen/G2 circuit and short them safely with a cheap set of discharge probes off Amazon. Repeat the same process for any large-diameter power supply filter capacitors to ensure the board is completely drained of energy.
